I'm pretty sure it's only a couple of wires. I put an LA3 in my '89 Mustang and repinned it. I changed about 6 wires and it only took a few minutes. Stinger has instructions below that should be real close to a Ranger. Get wiring diagrams and EVTMs for the year/model of the motor and your '88 Ranger and compare them. Should be really easy to figure out. Check out the websites below......................
